This was my second stay at the Rio, the last time being about 4 years ago with my wife. This was part of my 50th birthday trip with my friends. We started out whitewater rafting in the Grand Canyon and finished up in Las Vegas. I have been coming to Las Vegas once a year since I was 21 and... more

Though the hotel is getting on in years, the service provided by the staff was 110%! Our room was nice but the carpeting was stained - they sent up a maintenance guy with an industrial carpet steam cleaner and cleaned up all the spots. The bathroom was the only part of the room that was not great - the shower... more

First time Vegas Virgins. I had booked this hotel based on price and value and the fact that it had shuttles to and from the strip. Please promise that if you go to this hotel, you will write a review when you return. I got so much good information from this site, and it all really helped to plan this... more

First time at the Rio for myself (the boyfriend has been there twice in the past) and absolutely no complaints, well ok, just the pillows. Decided to stay at the Rio this time on our trip to Vegas and absolutley no complaints with this hotel. Yes it is off the strip but there is a shuttle bus to take you... more

We stayed at the RIO for four nights in September and had a nice enough stay, but things have definitely changed over the years. The rooms have always been huge - the all-suites is a great perk - and would be wonderful for groups of young girls or guys trying to save money by all cramming into one room. Check-in... more

I was like the others, a bit leary of staying at the Rio because of the previous reviews. I had never stayed there and noticed that a lot of the bad reviews were from people who had previously stayed there. I had no expectations so I am not dissapointed. The room was great! We stayed in the Masqurade tower and... more

Stayed from 27 to 29 September at the Rio. Requested and was granted a room at the Ipanema Tower - definitely the best location in relation to getting anywhere in the casino. The slots killed me the first day but then in the morning of my second day I hit a $1003 jackpot and then in the late evening took... more

My room itself wasn't dirty and most of the public areas were quite clean, but the pool area was just gross. The pools had a "ring around the tub" of gray brown soap scum like stuff. The sand surrounding the pools had been used as one large ashtray and there were cigarette and cigar butts just about everywhere I looked.... more

When we checked in we were told they didn't have a room for us after I had already paid for it. They put us in the PENTHOUSE SUITE. WOW it was very hard to leave the room the next day & go to our regular suite, but the 2 of us had 3 bathrooms, floor to celing window views &... more
